Hi everyone, Melody here from Talk With Heart & Yarrawonga Counselling 🌿

I’ve been listening to the needs of my beautiful clients, and one thing I keep hearing is how overwhelmed and stretched people are feeling.

So I'm bringing my workshop, The Gentle Reset: Somatic Healing & Nervous System Reset Workshop, to Yarrawonga this month!

📅 Tuesday March 31st
🕕 6pm - 7.30pm
🌿 NEW LOCATION
St Andrews Uniting Church

It’s simply an evening where we come together to slow down and help the body settle again. In 90 minutes, we will share guided meditation, calming sound therapy, soft breathwork, some movement therapy and simple somatic practices to help release tension and reset the nervous system.

Nothing complicated — just a peaceful space to breathe, relax and reconnect.

🌿 I’m keeping it small with only 20 places available so the space feels calm and supportive.

The silent treatment...

I’ve lived it.
The highs that felt like heaven…
The lows that nearly broke me.
The charm, the chaos, the trauma bond, the heartbreak you can’t explain to anyone who hasn’t lived it.

And now it’s all on paper.

She Is Alpha: From Narcissistic Chaos to Calm Feminine Power
is officially here.

This book is for every woman who loved a narcissist so deeply that the pleasure felt addictive and the pain felt inescapable.
For the woman who lost herself trying to hold together a man who fed on her softness.
For the woman who knows what it’s like to be shattered…
and still rise.

If you’re tired of the cycle — the confusion, the self-doubt, the emotional whiplash — this is your turning point.
Your clarity.
Your power.
Your return to the woman you were always meant to be.

We rarely speak about the other side of narcissistic relationships — the side where men are quietly breaking.

Because yes, women can manipulate.
Women can gaslight.
Women can control, shame, and emotionally dismantle a man just as deeply as any male abuser.

And so many good men hide their pain behind a steady face.
They stay loyal. They try harder. They hold the family together while slowly losing themselves in the process.

I work with many couples — 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙮 𝙢𝙚𝙣 𝙞𝙣 𝙥𝙖𝙞𝙣 — helping them move through narcissistic and manipulative breakups, especially when children are involved.
The emotional damage is real. The confusion is overwhelming. And the silence men keep out of shame is often the most heartbreaking part.

If you’re a man living this quiet battle, please know this:
Your pain is valid.
Your story matters.
You are not weak for wanting love that doesn’t hurt.

In a brand new study, researchers found that women who wore rose essential oil on their clothing for just 30 days had significant increases in gray matter volume across the whole brain on MRI scans.

When the aromatic molecules of rose essential oil are inhaled, they travel through the olfactory system to the brain’s limbic system, which governs emotions and memories.

The posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) is particularly responsive to the rose scent. The researchers suggest that the sustained exposure of the PCC to the rose scent leads to continuous processing and memory storage related to the scent, leading to an increase in gray matter volume.

This process of sustained scent exposure also appears to engage and stimulate memory-related neural pathways, driving neuroplasticity and positive structural brain changes.

Increased gray matter is associated with enhanced cognitive function (memory, learning and executive functions), better emotional regulation, reduced risk of neurodegenerative diseases, reduced stress and anxiety and improved overall mental health.
